Re: lymph drainage and liver detox, Anita

April 5, 2005

Hi Anita,

I am doing great, thanks for asking! My parents are still in town,

and we've been eating too much...when they go home, I will be able

to begin a dedicated detox program, and I am looking forward to it.

I can tell a difference when my healthy diet takes a back burner.

I am sorry to hear about your bronchitis! You gave me a laugh this

morning though with your quip about the Quack Care aka Quick Care!

That's so funny! i hope you won't have to be on the antibiotics

long. It's not the end of the world, of course, and I hope it helps

you kick what you have, and then you can get on some good probiotics.

I will be doing a liver flush as well, so I'll join you! I am happy

to hear you are going to be able to start the IV's for your precious

son, and I really hope it begins to kick in and help him alot. Poor

guy. I hope Dr. is good to you too. Did you have a talk

with him?

Here is that info from Kacey that you reposted a few weeks ago:

Re: draining the lymph system (Lymphatic

pump)

The information on the Lymph system is really interesting! My

doctor does a " lymphatic pump " on me every time I walk into the

office, and I never quite understood why (but I TRY EVERYTHING).

The lymphatic pump is really simple. You lie on your back and

someone pushes the tops of your feet forward in a pumping motion for

one minute (or about 60 pumps). Then you intertwine your fingers

over your chest (just above your breasts), take a deep breath, and

as you breath out slowly, the person is at your head with her hands

on top of your hands and is pushing. When you take a breath again,

the person stops pushing. You repeat the foot pumps for one more

minute, and then she presses on your chest again.

Very simple, but it supposedly really, really helps release toxins.

They have read and seen some great results before.

Take care,

Kacey

Anita, I still want to be able to have you and Daryl over to my

house for a get together...la, you can join us too if you

have moved to Vegas!

Hugs,

Patty

posted by Kacey. She said her doctor did it every time she saw

him. I just can't remember exactly how it was done. I must have

mistakenly deleted it.

> Anyway, I am going to do Hulda 's liver flush. Right now

though I am battling bronchitis. I got so bad on Saturday I had to

give in and go to Quack Care. So now I'm on antibiotics and my body

is rebelling. I will do the liver flush as soon as I kick this and

let you know how it goes I admit I'm a coffee addict and really

need to ween myself off of it. I guess I better start now if I'm

going to do the flush.

> My son has an appointment with Dr. next Wednesday so we

can start the IV's again. I spoke to him and he uses the right

brands of glutathione and phosphotydlcholine. I'm tempted to have

my son do the liver flush too but I'm afraid he will herx too

badly. He is so sensitive that even things like salt and cinnamon

give him a headache so I don't know if drinking the eqsom salts

would sit well with him. Take care Patty. Love, Anita

Thanks Patty. I must have deleted it when I posted it. I did speak to Dr. and he was very nice so hopefully all will go smoothly. I am sending for some Kefir culture from a place called G.E.M. cultures. Dr. Kane recommended it. It is her opinion that the lactic acid bacteria are the best. Just thought I'd share that in case you want to try it. I will give you the info if you do.

Hi Anita,

I hope all goes well with Dr. ...let me know!

I bought some kefir culture last year from Wilderness Family

Naturals. It came in the sweltering heat of August, and sat out in

the heat probably for a couple hours...UPS just dropped the box at

my front door. When I picked up the box, it was HOT. Of course, the

box of kefir culture says, " Keep refrigerated. " Hmph. I wasn't too

happy about that whole experience. If I remember right the culture

wasn't that cheap. I think I paid over $25 for it!

I threw the box in the fridge and well, just left it there. I

probably need to try to make it. Either that or ask the company to

send me some new stuff because I think the heat destroyed it.

Tell me more about the stuff you are getting. (make sure they

package it right and don't send in the middle of summer!) I have

been making goat milk yogurt, as Dr. Jordan Rubin recommends that

yogurt over all others. He says there is a problem with one of the

cultures found in most commercial yogurts... " Streptococcus

thermophilus " , which can aggravate the autoimmune disease process if

you eat alot of it. (So he says....I'll try the goat milk yogurt!) I

wonder if the kefir has that? I can't tell from my box.

After my parents leave and I can get back on track with proper

eating habits, I will be trying to eat alot of fermented foods.

Actually, I need to try to teach them as well, but they are pretty

set in their dietary ways.

Thanks Anita,

Love,

Patty

Hi Patty, I think you might like G.E.M. cultures. They have all kinds of cultures available. Some I have never heard of and wouldn't know what to do with. She has a website www.gemcultures.com . They have kombucha tea fungus, sourdough (the brown rice one is gluten free) and things like nigari, terra alba,koji, amazake. You're not going to believe this but I put the lymph drainage instructions in a folder and later when I went to read it it disappeared when I clicked on it! Could you send it again? No rush. I'm weaning myself off coffee so I can do the liver flush and we see Dr. next Wednesday. I'll let you know how it goes.

Anita,

The gemcultures website looks really interesting!

I wish I could work up some interest in preparing

foods this way. . . I have a hard enough time just

getting in the kitchen to do the regular stuff! Just

ask my hubby . . .

Funny story . . . among us old retired folks, you find

some who don't cook AT ALL! . . . One couple was

telling me about designing their dream home . . . They

had the plans all laid out . . . thought they were

done, and realized they didn't have a kitchen! Duh! .

.. At least I can do better than that!

Love,

Rogene

Rogene, That's so funny..no kitchen. If I had my way I wouldn't cook either. I hate it but it's funny it seems that's what I spend half my time doing! I thought you might be interested in the kombucha mushroom tea. They call it a fungus but I guess that's not what it really is. I noticed they also have natto..good for the hypercoagulation of the blood. Other than those I have never heard of most of them.

Anita,

I think the Kombucha tea was the very first thing I

tried. I think it helped! . . . It looks rather gross

growing in the bottle. But the tea tastes good! . . .

At it's best, it's slightly sweet, with just a bit of

tang. Leave it too long, and it becomes vinegary.

My hubby would love it if I spent the day in the

kitchen too! . . . I keep promising him that when

we're both skinny, I'll cook up a storm.

A friend, who has Celiac disease, makes her own

yogurt. Says it's wonderful. I sent her the

gencultures website address.

Anita, did you notice that , PJ's daughter

has joined SiliconeKids? She's looking for information

too. It doesn't sound like she's found much. Hopefully

some of the things you and Sue are trying with your

kids will start showing results!

Love,

Rogene

Please do!

Here is that info from Kacey:
